I see heaven's glories shine and faith shines equal.
I feel no need for any other faith than my faith in the kindness of human beings. I am so absorbed in the wonder of earth and the life upon it that I cannot think of heaven and angels.
Faith without works is like a bird without wings though she may hop with her companions on earth yet she will never fly with them to heaven.
Heaven knows that I have done all that a mortal could do to save the people and the failure was not my fault but the fault of others.
We climb to heaven most often on the ruins of our cherished plans finding our failures were successes.
I also found that for myself since I've had no religious education it was so interesting to see the different versions of heaven and what life on earth means.
I think basically becoming famous has taken the place of going to Heaven in modern society hasn't it? That's the place where your dreams will come true. It's an act of faith now they think that's going to sort things out.
We weep over the graves of infants and the little ones taken from us by death but an early grave may be the shortest way to heaven.
As the fly bangs against the window attempting freedom while the door stands open so we bang against death ignoring heaven.
Every parting is a form of death as every reunion is a type of heaven.
